"Jack" par Alphonse Daudet. Alphonse Daudet tait un crivain et auteur dramatique fran ais (1840-1897).
Hi My name is Jack as the title explains. I have been a Catholic all my life and a union member since I was out of high school. I've lived most of my life in Chicago except when I was in college and a brief stint for work on the East Coast. "Jack" is a story I have told several times. It is about a cover-up at a Catholic organization in Chicago. The last time I told the story and documented all the facts was January 22, 2015 in the conference room of a large well- respected law firm that was known for catching "white collar criminals"', but even the lawyers and the investigators could not get over the amount of detail I gave them. Later that day the 2nd meeting was cancelled because the first meeting was so explosive with dates and details that church hierarchy were ensnared by their evil deeds. Those ensnared were a Chief Financial Officer, Personnel department, 2 Construction Managers, 2 Bishops, 2 Lawyers, 2 Cardinals and an employee known to all as the "Target." Also, the second meeting was cancelled because it had the potential to do more damage than the story "Spotlight" covered by the Boston Globe and did substantial damage to the Boston Catholic University when the newspaper found a massive cover-up to hide pedophile priests. Pope Francis stated "You tell me: Can you live crushed under the weight of the present without a memory of the past and without a desire to look ahead to the future of building something, a future, a family? Can you go on like this?" This to me is the most urgent problem that the church is facing. In my case it was tossing out some religious individuals quickly, publicly and dishonorably. This story occurred in Chicago and explains how not only one man manipulated this large organization but showed the length and absurdity to elude all his past dirty deeds each day, while others were doing the same thing all behind Christ on the Cross. The story takes you into an area that is never talked about because it is seen as Holy and, Sacred-but it is not It is filled with the same human frailty everywhere. This is a male-dominated arena both for faith and money, no women are allowed.

" ...]but to do this it was necessary to send my boy away for a time that he might obtain the education worthy of the name he ought to bear. I thought that nowhere could he do as well as here, but at one blow you repulse him and discourage his mother's good resolutions." Here the Superior arrested her with an exclamation of astonishment. He hesitated a moment; then looking her straight in her eyes, said, - "So be it, madame. I yield to your wishes. Little Jack pleases me very much; I consent to receive him among our pupils." ...]"
Each dawn, Ed roused from sleep with a sombre, desolate sensation and instinctively reached for his notepad, capturing the emotions before they slipped away. These bleak feelings seemed to permeate every moment of his waking existence, becoming a persistent presence that lingered within him. Even so, he remained resolute in expressing these visions, capturing them on paper as an act of defiance against the weight of his emotions. Day by day, he continued to battle against the tide of melancholy that threatened to engulf him, turning to his notepad each morning as a source of solace and catharsis. For Ed, writing was a means of processing and confronting the darkness that plagued him, an instrument of self-expression that allowed him to find meaning and purpose in his struggles."I've found it a really enjoyable book to work on; I've worked on a few books about Jack the Ripper in the past and thought that this was a very original take with combining that history with your story about Ed." Mark Swift.

Jack, a loyal and loving Boxer, becomes an out-of-control killing machine days after contracting rabies from a raccoon in his familys backyard. Jack attacks his owner, 17-year-old Katy, and her childhood friend, Peyton, and a bloody race for survival ensues as the terrified girls find themselves severely injured and trapped in a bedroom without any means of calling for help. The life-or-death situation is a shock considering the endearing nature of this story. Jack, a rescue dog, is the perfect companion for Katy and a neighborhood favorite. The two end up being inseparable, often going on long-distance runs together, snuggling by the TV late at night, and spending their free time together even as Katy gets older and finds her schedule getting busier with a love interest and her and Peytons budding cross country careers. Jack is an extremely loyal and protective dog. He saves both Katy and Peyton from predatory acts and becomes a hero in the neighborhood for his fearlessness. But one day Jack is left alone outside and is bit behind the ear by a raccoon. When Katys mom neglects to take him to the vet, Jack takes a turn. Katy and Peyton notice Jack becoming restless in the backyard. When they open the door, he attacks them and slices into Peytons wrist. Peyton is severely injured but cannot get help as the two girls end up trapped in a bedroom as Jack violently tries to claw his way into the room through the door and nearby windows. Katy tries her best to care for Peytons wound, but she has already lost a lot of blood. After several hours, Katy considers many rescue attempts but instead works out a daring escape, so she can get to her cell phone and call for help. Peyton runs outside to create a distraction and collapses on the front lawn. Jack vanishes. Meanwhile, Peyton is rushed to the hospital and is being treated for her injuries. Left to pick up the pieces, Katy works with local animal control to bait Jack out of hiding in a nearby trail. When Jack tries to attack Katy and her mom, the unthinkable happens.
